Happy Siblings day I just knew it falls on April 11th,
until then I am not sure how many of us are not talking, remembering or
counting that we have siblings?
I see lot of people posted pictures with their brother/
sisters on twitter, few on Instagram I ain’t on Facebook though where people
are trying to share if they are Feeling, irritated, frustrated, inspired or
happy or whatever it is that they want to show the world, and the twitter’s 142
characters is more for me to handle in a day. Back to the grind, I mean really? you need day to realize that you have a
sibling and you need to wish them, remember them today of all 365 days in a
year? Who started this shit? Who is Saint Valentine? Where all this is coming from ?
Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, everyone has a day in this New age world to celebrate, wish, remember or to post a pic on “social media” which
mostly is caused by a mental health disorder called Social mediarrhea”. Coz its become more like a pissing competition , we need to show to the world that we
are a part of this so called globalization ( world under one umbrella- as they
say! ), and we celebrate everything by posting a picture or sharing one? If you
need a day to appreciate and realize the value of human relations I wonder if
we are living with the support of robots in our daily life, or what?
I don’t think you can just live it up alone, you will need and
by far you are driven by all the people around you every single day who mean something
to you. We don’t choose our siblings, they are predestined, we choose our
friends, and we live with them practically. Of all the things I remember in
life, I love my childhood the most. I remember how close I was with my
siblings, cousins and other kids in the family. We didn’t have everything, but our
parents made sure we had what we need, and they always did . I am sure you
would agree with me on this. They made sacrifices they have put down their little
happiness’s aside for our sake, and ensured we are happy, siblings always had
our back, when I had less marks on my report card and I was afraid to take it
to my Dad/ Mom, when I needed that extra 25Rs for that weekend movie or when I was
caught with a half pack cigarettes left in my pants hanged at the back of the
door in my bedroom. And more importantly I remember we used to add water to the curd to ensure we all had enough to eat rice with. I mean these are the memories I have and as I see, they are the best portion
of my life and they are small and nameless moments I spent smiling with someone
who mattered to me and they still do. Now I see in this post Y2K I need to find
a day to celebrate every relation, and every bond and I totally forgot
about friendship day if I know correctly it falls on 1st Sunday of
August in every year. And Some morons do celebrate friendship week also 😊
I feel blessed to stay in the company of great friends, who always
have my back. I can call them anytime of the day or night and I know they will
be there when I need. I try to call my siblings every day almost to check with
them on how they are and how good their kids are growing up to be better than
us, and Most of all Mother and Father, If you really think you need a day to remember
them or to do something for them , then I really feel sorry for you. It’s a circle
of life guys, they are growing old, they
may have less time left in some cases ( no offense but let’s get real we never
know, do we?) Lets take care of them value their time, respect for what they
did to us. Before the so called Regret hits real hard on our face! Most of us by this time should have realized
that they were always right with us, no
matter how much we thought they are against our will or wish to do something when we were in our teens.
At the end note its people. People are the best and the
worst thing that will happen to us, Some will help us go further, others will
pull us down to their level and help you lose. Most are OK. Many are average. Some
will be excellent. A few people will change your life forever, and we need to
find them and that’s our goal. We don’t need
a lot of friends or people around us, we need amazing people who for you as
much as you do for them unintentionally and unconditionally . I just feel the
right things now a days that we should be able to Plan in Decades, Think in
years , Work in Months and Live in days. And perhaps after three and half
decades- I feel much comfortable in my own skin because the poor thing is also
not as tight as it used to be 😊
Love, Laughter and Peace forever!!
